Recruiting an Oxford East Campaign Manager

Oxfordshire Green Party is urgently recruiting a Campaign Manager to run our 2015 General Election campaign in the Oxford East constituency, one of the top eight targeted seats of the Green Party of England and Wales. This role will provide the overall coordination for the Oxford East campaign from February until after the general election in May.

We are looking for a dynamic individual with experience within a political organisation, who understands how to implement a sophisticated campaign strategy and to lead and work within a team, managing a varied work load.

Oxfordshire Green Party is a local group of the Green Party of England and Wales. Our 6 Oxford City councillors and 2 Oxfordshire County councillors are fighting for the people of Oxfordshire. The key issues that we campaign on include protecting our vital public services, challenging inequality and austerity, fighting for better homes for all, and standing up for migrant rights.

Since September 2014, Green Party membership has doubled across the UK. More and more people are turning away from the parties of the establishment and demanding change. Oxford East is one of our best constituencies in the UK. We come second in local elections across Oxford, with over 20% of the vote. Help us convince Oxford to vote Green in a general election.
